Subject:Exhaust manifold to heads - Studs or Bolts?
From:tabe johnson

Hi,

There has been talk in the last few weeks about
replacing steel with SS studs in the heads.
(M8X30)  I've been looking at the ETKA but
it's not clear.  (illustrations 5-05 and 35-08)

My engine has BOLTS holding the exhaust manifolds
to the heads.  This is NOT the preferred method,
right?  I will change them unless someone
knowledgeable says using bolts is preferred.

Thanks for any and all responses!
